How Kothsohild Made Money.
French Paper.

When Rothschild came to Paris in 1912
he possessed $4,000. At his death his
private fortune amounted to $55, 000,0 200
and that of the firm to over $500, 000,00
He owed his success TO his happy knRck
of always "taking fortune at the food"
and TO his careful observation of
all political events that might tend to
make or mar mis- prosperity. Once he
was suffering from some cerebral COM
plant and mad to undergo a difficult and
dangerous operation. His surgeon, DR..
Dupuytren, had strictly forbidden all
mental excitement as likely to have fatal
consequences. RothschiId lay half con-
scious on his bed when tidings were
brought of the assassination
of the Duke of Berry.
The patient Immediately jumped up,
though the blood was streaming over his
face, the bandage having come undone in
the excitement, aud, dragging himself
across the room, rang the bell with great
violence. "The Duke OF Berry is MUIR
dered! Sell out! sell Quit" he cried out
to his alarmed attendants, as they rushed
into the room and then he fell back in a
swoon. By this transaction he saved con-
siderable sums of money.

lien AND WOMEN.
Vanity and Extravagance-Two Sexes
Compared.
Chicago Herald.

Compared.
Chicago Herald.
"Talk about the vanity of women," said
Madison-street halter, SIT is nothing
compared to that of men. My wife used
to keep millinery store, and as 1 was
hanging around her shop a good deal
had an opportunity to study the custom
ers, in whom took more interest than
dill IN the stock. Well, women sre not
vain. Not one woman in fifty has any
vanity about her personal appearance.
She has, what is better, systematic and
5usiness-like method of making herself
! look as well as possible. 1t is part Of
her daily life to wear the things which
will become her, and in making seiec-
tiOns she is earnest and practical AID
patient, even if not always artistic. She
knows her own face and figure better than
anybody else, and does not deceive her
self. She knows what she can wear to
advantage and what she cannot. If shei
good looking she knows it, but does not
| become silly in consequence. fplain she
Is aware of the fact and instinctively and
sensibly does her best to make herself at
tractive by the arts of dress and adorn-
ment. Take women by themselves, away
from the other sex, and there is no foot
ishness among them concerning them
selves. They are perfectly frank with
each other concerning their figures and
features, and assist each other with ad-
mirable good humor. It is quite differ
ent with men. For three years | have
been in the hat business, and in that time
have seen more genuine vanity than in all
my life before. Nine men out OF ten are
either vain or Indifferent. The average
man doesn't know what he wants, and
while you are showing him goods he
changes his mind half dozen times. 1t
is no uncommon thing in my store for q
customer to stand forty times before the
mirror, each time with hat on his head.
Sometimes he will take three or four
looks at one hat during the course OF his
search. In the matter of extravaganza,
too, the women are not the only offenders.
Men will pay SIS to $12 for silk hats, or
s. to 81 for round crowned bats made by
well known manufacturer, whose name
is supposed to lead the local world of hat
fashions, when they know very we'll that
articles of identical merit in every partic-
ular can be purchased at a saving of from
So TO S. elsewhere. They do this simply
because they are vain enough to wish 10
be able to say, on occasion, that their hat
is from so and SO, the fashionable. |
know men whose incomes do not exceed
$50 month who eXpend in q year not
less than $40 for hats. Few women spend
larger sums.n

USEFUL BROOM HANDLES.
How They Can Be Used to Make Many
Pretty Things.
Cincinnati Enquirer.


Cincinnati Enquirer
Do not throw away the worn out broom
handles. When you have three just alike,
make pretty and useful reading table.
The legs should be thirty-four inches
long, with the ends sawed of, standing
in opposite directions, in order that the
top may fit and the legs stand firmly on the
floor. Cross the legs about thirteen inches
from the upper end, and put a round
headed screw through two, being careful
that it is not long enough to go entirely
through the second one; then place the
third one and put another screw through.
Do not put them in too tightly until the
legs are altogether, as you may
need to move them out or in q little;
and it is good plan to put on
the top before finishing. The top should
be fifteen inches square; mark the places
for the legs, at equsl distance apart, and
about one and q half inches from the
edge. If you are good at such work it is
better to cut out little of the wood. so
that the legs will sink in an eighth of an
inch; then put screws through the top
into the legs. Cover the screw heads
with putty. The legs at the bottom
should be spread about six inches more
ct the top, otherwise it will tip easily.
The legs may be eBonized, gilded or
stained any color to suit the fancyS The
top covered with felt and trimmed with
deep fringe put on with ornamentM
brass nails or an Ordinary cover isas
pretty and durable as anything. ~

TIE BIG BLANKET FISH.
A Story Showing How 1t Overpowers and
Kills the Pearl Divers.
Interview with a Pearl Diver.


The first time struck the bottom l
couldn't believe was there. It was as
clear as air, and the fishes swimming
around might have been taken for birds.
landed Oh kind of sand hill when they
lowered me, and had to walk about fifty
feet down into a valley-like before l
struck the shells. They were all in q
bunch stretched along in ridge, looking
like black mark against the white DOT
tom. l was dragging the hamper, and
when l got alongside l began to toss them
in. I reckon had filed half dozen or
so, when all at once l saw a kind of
shadow moving over all. At first thought
it was the schooner, and then, perhaps,
some of the other divers coming down,
and then it left; but all at once it came
again and grew so dark in second that
l turned quick and looked up, and if my
hair hadn't been held down by copper
cap it would have riz right on end.
There, a-movin' over me, was what l
took to be bird about thirty feet across.
1t was wheeling round and round, flap
ping its big wings: Just as you've seen
buzzards or eagles do, overhead. Down
it came, lower and lower, and l a-crouch-
ing as fat as l could get. The nearer it
got the bigger it looked, and as 1 see it
was asserting on me 1 took the pike l
always carried, and as it wheeled around
over me l let drive. Hit it?, Well, l
reckon 1 did. The next thing 1 knew 1
was standing on my head, rolling over
and over, then yanked sideways, half
drowned, and then reckon l lost my
senses, and when l came to l was lynn
on deck and all hands looking at me. You
see the critter had given the water such
swirl that | was knocked end for end,
and my pipe and line twisted around and
around, SO that couldn't breathe, and, of
course, that pulled the line and the men
thought l had jerked it to come up, SO
they hauled away for all they were worth,
and that's what saved my life. What was
it? Why, nOthln' but one of those sea-
bats-blanket fish the other men called it
and they all say had narrow run for
it. That was the way accordin' to their
say, that the fish goes to work to getaway
with man. They first settle down on
you like a blanket, and there you are.

West Point being conspicuous. a rally
soon followed, and the market became
quiet and at times positively Gull. There
was less business in the after

made in an upward direction, and
in the last hour q sharp advance
all around accompanied by largely in
creased business occurred. The close

figures of the day.
Railroad bonds were somewhat more
active. The market ruled steady to firm
throughout most of the day, and the
closing prices generally show advances.
Government bonds were dull and
